Ice fishers beware starting Feb. 17, 2023

Two people on the ice of Banks Lake, with fishing gear and. more all around, attend to their poles and look into holes in the ice, which extends for far around them, with the shore visible hundreds of feet away in the background.
A couple anglers fish through the ice on Banks Lake near the feeder canal Thursday.

The ice on Banks Lake could “could rapidly change without warning” as the Bureau of Reclamation will begin pumping water into the lake on Friday, Feb. 17, the Bureau announced Thursday.

A similar warning applies for those fishing at Potholes Reservoir.
